7 Ace Aussie Airbnbs -$200 That’re Perfect For Yr Next Epic Summer Holiday

As active participants in our fabulously superficial society, you’d be well versed with the idea that a good / service being dubbed ‘cheap’ won’t be scoring a 10 on the quality scale (Kmart excluded – all hail Kmart). 

This is particularly important to remember when you’re travelling. The last thing you want is to roll around on a 20-year-old mattress featuring unbeknownst crusty sprog stains – the telltale marker of accommodation described holistically as “affordable”. 

Thankfully, the superpower that is Airbnb has caused a drastic decrease in those experiencing that aforementioned sticky situation. Yes, their sway over the market has seen only a small drop in quality for listings with a price tag that won’t make you recoil at your desk. It’s a nice change for those of us who’re fighting the good fight against the rising cost of living, etc. 

So, without further ado, we’re chuffed to share seven cribs with a price point under $200 for y’all to get around this summer. 

FYI: I’m a stickler for decent looking dwellings, so I’ll be honest in saying that the below won’t make you drop your pants and say, “Penetrate me with a telephone pole.” They’re perfect for a fuck-eyed weekend away with your crew, or a Marvin Gaye-esque getaway with bae. 

This two bedroom / two bathroom, top floor apartment is an ace option for those wanting to make the summer months pack a punch. If waking up to enjoy the sunrise + ocean views is your thing, then get to booking this joint ASAP.

Enjoy a spot of brunch after banging bae? Get around this Flinders Lane apartment that’s legit too Melbourne to function. Close to cafes, cafes and more cafes, there’s a good chance someone will randomly throw a cafe-bought serving of smashed avo at ya (“Say cafe agin.” “Cafe”). 

Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy renovated Sunday school church hall. Yep, prepare to exclaim, “SWEET MOTHER OF JESUS FKN CHRIST,” upon entering this Tasmanian pad that’s just a stone’s throw from North Hobart‘s restaurant strip.

Look, luxe living isn’t the first thing that pops into my mind when thinking about the Northern Territory. This Darwin mansion, however, is challenging that stance / getting me a lil’ hot under the collar. Ft. resort-style pool + marina views, this ‘yuge place is perfect for a long weekend romp with your squad.

You know when life may as well be pouring 15 litres of cat piss on your head everyday? To avoid the metaphorical downpour, you need to escape to somewhere for some serious R&R. This beach house in SA could be your go-to happy place for you and your mates to recuperate from the nine-to-five grind.

Ever experienced a mate coming back from holiday dropping the, “I literally can’t even,” bomb at every opportunity when asked how it was? Well, we hate to say it, but you’re going to turn into one of those assholes after shacking up in this drool-inducing property. If the idea of your own pool, private theatre, popcorn machine AND recliner seats has your nipples as hard as diamonds, then it looks like you’ve found your next holiday destination.  

What a time to be alive, right? Who would’ve thought we’d be able to travel on the cheap in such a harsh economic climate (*shakes fist at ‘the man’*). 

Go forth and have a fucking hoot, fam.
